Life of LiterarY Peonle.

If it be said that literary people must live,
and that literature is precarious means Of
support, the obvious reply would be that all
means of income are precarious, and litera-
ture no more so than the rest. Whatever en-
ptoyment one chooses, he must take the risk
of failure in it. Many lawyer has literally
almost no clients; many physician has
hardly any patients; and why should writer
expect to be more secure! His possible prizes
in money are not so great as the lawyers,
probably, but they are greater than those of
the physician or the clergyman; and the
blanks are less, on the whole, than in either
of these occupations. have known men of
all these professions who were absolutely uu-
employed. A lawyer Of unusual attainments,
returning in middle life to the home of his
youth, told me that for one year he had not
single client, great or small; he did not so
much as draw a will or deed.
l have never known decently equipped
literary man or woman to be left thus hope
lessly stranded; there was always something
to be earned, even at a low price Appar-
emily the bitterest of these complaints ema-
nate from literary men in large cities who live
face to face with the vast successes of the
stock exchange, and cannot be satisfied so
long as the nation does not furnish them with
corresponding incomes. They do not recog-
nize that perhaps it is poverty which has
drawn out Of them whatever approach to
genius they have shown; and that if they
gained the millions which they seem to them
selves to deserve, perhaps the genius might
vanish, like the song Of a canary which is fed
too well.-"T. w. II" in Harper's Bazar.
